Confession

As a man, I must not be pushed around by romance.
If there’s a woman I like, I must charge into it head-on to make her mine——

...So, I want to determine myself
KOUTA: [ b]P...[ b]
KTOUA: [ b]President![ b]
SFX: bam
And confess like a man!

KOUTA: The thing is, I have something to earnestly speak with you about...
MIKA: ...What?

KOUTA: P...please go out with me!!
SFX: boom
MIKA: ...Sure, why not?


p.03
...?

KOUTA: ...Huh?
MIKA: I won’t really mind doing
MIKA: That much.

KOUTA: S...seriously!?
SFX: happy~
MIKA: So?
MIKA: Where do you want to go out to?

KOUTA: ......?
MIKA: ......?


p.04
A true man

...Well, sure, I did think it couldn’t have possibly gone so conveniently...
KOUTA: .........
SFX: chatter chatter
MIKA: It’s not so bad to take a breather in the school cafeteria once in a while.

...However, this itself could be called an act for couples...
SFX: mesmerized
Wasn’t it ultimately a good thing to have pushed myself to try to confess?

........................ No no no!
What am I doing getting satisfied by something like this!?

Being a man, I mustn’t be satisfied by such incomplete things.
SFX: grip
Always putting everything on the line no matter what you do is what being a true man is all about!


p.05
Wha?

All right...
KOUTA: Excuse me! Please hear me out!!
SFX: bam
KOUTA: Th...the truth is, from before, I’ve always...

N...nice to meet you!

MIZU: ...Who?
MIKA: I said, Iwachidori!
MIKA: Mikado Iwachidori! I’m an acquaintance of your younger brother!!

MIZU: ...Who do you mean by younger brother?
MIKA: [ b]...I’m sorry!?[ b]


p.07
Imagine

...Now that I think about it, I don’t even know what that guy’s name is, do I...
MIKA: Y...you know, that younger brother!
MIKA: That one!
MIZU: Even if you just say “that one”...

MIKA: He’s tall, and has sharp eyes...
MIZU: Hmm

MIKA: His hair seems kind of unkempt and he has headphones...
MIZU: Mhmm

MIKA: He’s always walking like a delinquent with his clothes fully open in the front...
MIKA: The younger brother like that!
Imagine mutter: Hehehe...
MIZU: ...To think I had such a perverse younger brother...


p.08

MIZU: ...Rather, I’m an only child, though...
MIKA: Huuh!?
MIKA: B...but, he said to get along with his older sister...
SFX: appear

SFX: oh!
MIKA: That person! Isn’t he your younger brother!?
MIZU: ......?
MIZU: You mean Tatsunami-san?

MIKA: ...Tatsunami-san!?

MIKA: So he’s called Tatsunami!?
SFX: shake x3
MIKA: Is that it!?
Is it!?
MIZU: ...Super annoying...

Win-win

MIKA: ...So basically he’s Daigo Tatsunami in first year class B————

SFX: glance
MIKA: ......
Box: ...To be continued.


p.10
Alright!

DAIGO: .........
I learned from Asagiri’s information that Kikukawa likes bears.

...Though I don’t know if Kikukawa would be happy with something like this...
DAIGO: ......
If we could just talk even a little as I give this as an apology for poking her eyes before...

DAIGO: ......
DAIGO: Alright!
SFX: grip
SFX: Snap!

[none]


p.11
Perhaps Like a Bear Pair?

...It’s okay, I thought something like this might happen so I prepared a spare...
SFX: dejected

All I need to do is find Kikukawa and hand it to her nonchalantly, naturally...
Nonchalantly... naturally...

...There she is!!
DAIGO: Ki...Kikukawa!
KIKU: Hm?

DAIGO: ...It’s for you!
SFX: bam
DAIGO: Take it!!

p.13
Assumption

Being able to be immersed in games and anime is proof of excelling in a certain ability.
Namely, the “power of empathy”——— the power of assuming things.

The power to assume “the protagonist is me,” “everything that happens in this work is real”———
Because they are able to feel fiction as if it were reality, they can seriously fall in love with characters and seriously cry for their deaths.

...I think I especially excel at this power.
The power of empathy——— the power of assuming things———

...That’s right, “assumption”...
Could it be that I’m just “assuming things”?


p.14
Finally, eh

...Maybe it never even existed?
I could have made a misconception, relying on what little... what tiny scrap of information I was given...

Aren’t I misunderstanding?
........................ ........................ ........................

...In that case, was all this time until now a complete waste...?
That’s... that’s ridiculous... Could it be...———

Was the neglect play my misunderstanding ...!?
Box: ...To be continued.

Break 35

[none]

UME: ...They’ve been going “to be continued,” “to be continued” quite a lot...
UME: What heck is up with that?
SAKU: ...Well, maybe it means it’s at that kind of point.

UME: I see... Then we have to “to be continued” something.
SAKU: Hmmm...

UME: Hey, Bandamu-san
SAKU: [ b]That joke was still continuing!?[ b]
SFX: shock
Box: It had been continuing.


p.16
Break 36

UME: ...The truth is, I never told you this, Bandamu-san, but
UME: I...
SAKU: Huh?

SFX: whoosh

UME: ...Oh, sorry.
UME: You know what, never mind.
SAKU: Huh?

UME: Forget that just now.
UME: It was nothing.
...Uh huh.
SAKU: ......
I’m... I’m curious...
Box: ...To be continued.
